一位愿意捐出49万美金的大菩萨，只留给自己美金一元。
黄东留克勤克俭 为助人捐出所有
陈珮滢 邱品豪 美国洛杉矶报导
美国总会为了海地赈灾，目前除了动员人力前往赈灾之外，也积极募心募款，今天总会就收到一笔美金十万元的捐款，它是来自一位中国华侨，今年72岁，名叫黄东留，除了海地捐款，她还曾经捐助台湾八八水灾以及美国医疗志业，连同这一次捐款，总金额超过美金45万。
然而，黄女士却是住在洛杉矶一个较为中下阶层的社区，而且出门以巴士代步。当她这一次又拿着支票来捐款时，志工担心她是误写了太多个零，还担心她没有老本过生活而拒收她的支票。而听说黄女士血压太高，志工与人医会医师一起到她家往诊。
美国医疗志业行政秘书王惠平：「你有没有吃药？你在吃什么？你吃饼干，你中午有没有吃？没有，你在等我对不对？」
慈济志工王惠平拿着饭菜要带给黄东留女士，因为听说黄女士血压太高，赶紧来关心她。而美国人医会医师陈恂满平常就会买点心或午餐给黄女士，知道黄女士血压太高，而且不肯吃西药，特地带了血压计来为她量血压。
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「你今天有没有睡饱？有睡饱，你如果让我量血压太高的话，我就打屁股。」
结果血压210，还是太高，陈医师就像逗小孩子一样的，一直哄着黄女士一定要吃药控制。黄女士曾经是美国义诊中心的驻诊医师，也参加过早期的墨西哥义诊，却因为中风而无法行医，如今她住在洛杉矶的一个普通社区里，生活极为简单。
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「我去跟你拿药，晚上来给你吃，你开始吃，好不好？你昨天开一半的支票，我看看你放在哪里。太多零了，写到一半我说不行，我们要把这个事情搞定了。昨天我们两个人在那边写零，写到算不出来，不知道小数点几个，她说要给台湾一半，给海地一半，我算了半天。因为这个钱比较多，所以我请师姑们来做证，不然我会害怕，你又不吃药，我就很紧张。」
黄东留：「哥哥嫂嫂都知道我把钱都捐出去，要不我死了之后怎么办？」
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「没有啊，怎么那么快会死，人这么坏怎么会死，不听话。你为什么这次要捐海地？」
黄东留：「我应该捐。〈你有看电视吗？〉当然有看。」
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「为什么要捐给慈济？」
黄东留：「我捐给慈济，慈济捐给他们。」
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「我替你拿去捐，好吧，我替你拿去花掉。」
黄东留：「不要花掉。」
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「没有啦，就去花给他们，给他们用，我们去买米，买东西送给他们，就说你的爱心。」
黄东留：「也不一定，每一个人的爱心。」
美国人医会医师陈恂满：「心这样爱爱两下。这要跪下来，要说什么？说你爱我，我也爱你。」
黄东留：「不是，我爱慈济。」
Dr. Huang, guardian angel of health
On today's US Tzu Chi 360, we bring you to Los Angeles. Fourteen years ago, at a tea house in Fresno, California, a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) doctor from China picked up a volunteer recruitment flyer from Tzu Chi Foundation. She was bound with the foundation ever since. For 14 years, she has been a Tzu Chi volunteer, a volunteering physician at Tzu Chi free clinic, and she has even donated 490,000 dollars to the foundation, after suffering from a stroke. Her recent contribution include 100,000 dollars to the Haiti earthquake survivors. Today, we are going to tell you the story about the Bodhisattva who treats not only the disease but also the well being of people.
Managing life after retirement
It's another busy morning. Seventy-year-old retired TCM doctor Anne Huang from mainland China is waiting for the bus to Los Angeles Public Library.
Retired TCM doctor, Anne Huang: "I have nothing to do after retirement. So I go to the library, to read or to borrow books... I like to read about fitness, about health issues, and about traditional Chinese medicine."
A simple life and a generous heart
In the apartment where she lives with her brother and sister-in-law, Huang sits in the only table and desk, reading the newspaper. This simple room describes her simple life: reading the paper, feeding the fish, practicing Taiji, that's one day.
Although this retired TCM doctor lives such a simple life, she never hesitates to give. Recently within one year, Huang donated 490,000 dollars to Tzu Chi Foundation in total, including 100,000 dollars to the foundation's 2010 Haiti Earthquake relief fund.
Retired TCM doctor, Anne Huang: "I donate because this is what I should do...people should help each other. If I don't help people I can't call myself a good person."
For some people, it's surprising that Huang gives such a large amount of money so willingly and selflessly, but in the eyes of her own brother, Huang has been generous ever since she was a little girl.
Anne Huang's brother, Bing Huang: "She is smart, she took good care of people…She helped the elders to cross the street. The old woman next to our door had nothing to eat, and she brought rice to her."
A life-long passion to help others
Huang loved to help others as a child, and became a doctor who guarded life and health when she grew up. Prior to her retirement after a stroke eight years ago, Huang offered free treatment at Tzu Chi free clinic.
Retired TMC doctor, Anne Huang: "I was very happy because I could help others. I've seen many patients, I thought they were happy, too. I didn't do it for long, I did it for only one year, I could have done it longer if God gave me more time."
Former TCM director at Tzu Chi free clinic, Michelle Hsieh: "She interacted with all the colleagues...I know she is very enthusiastic as a doctor, and is very serious about her patients. Whenever we have outreach clinics, she always makes sure all her patients get help. She would never rush any of her patients."
Accumulating goodwill everywhere
Because of her enthusiasm and dedication, Huang was missed by everyone after she left the free clinic. When she is ill, Tzu Chi volunteers not only visit her often, but also take her to the doctor on a regular basis. Every time she visits the clinic, Huang always greets everyone cheerfully.
Half a million dollars donation
Her old colleagues were very moved by her generous donations to Tzu Chi, almost 500,000 dollars in total.
Former TCM director at Tzu Chi free clinic, Michelle Hsieh: "I was very shock. I thought she was such a frugal person, but now she donated all her savings. I wondered what did she get from Tzu Chi that makes her want to give like this?"
Supporting Tzu Chi Free Clinic
Huang stays single and has no children. She cares deeply about the patients and staff members at Tzu Chi free clinic.
Former TCM director at Tzu Chi free clinic, Michelle Hsieh: "So I think she is a really great person, a great Bodhisattva."
Retired TMC doctor, Anne Huang: "The most important thing for a person is health. Money isn't as important. So being healthy and having some money to help others is the best."
Former TCM director at Tzu Chi free clinic, Michelle Hsieh: "She did not keep the money for herself, or live a more luxurious life. I found her remarkable, especially since she thought about those who suffered and survived from the disasters. She isn't just compassionate toward her patients. She is compassionate toward strangers who were affected by the disasters. She is really remarkable."
Selfless and unconditional giving
Fourteen years ago, Huang joined Tzu Chi as a volunteer. Six years later, she began treating patients at Tzu Chi Free Clinic, and now donates nearly 500,000 dollars to Tzu Chi. Suffering from illness, Huang cannot be a doctor anymore, but one way or another, she continues guarding health, life, and love.
女中医乐施捨 户头剩一块钱
2010年3月09日 曾多闻 林义航
住在美国加州的黄东留中医师，1996年起，参与了无数次慈济义诊。而每当灾难发生，她总是那位慷慨解囊的大菩萨。
女中医清平度日 助人救人不犹豫
在一个忙碌的早晨，来自广东的七十岁退休中医师黄东留，在车水马龙的街头等公车，要去洛杉矶市立图书馆。
退休中医师 黄东留说：「退休以后没事做，就去图书馆借书，要不就是在图书馆看书这样，看些关于中医、运动，凡是对健康有好处的书，我都喜欢看。」
这位生活清平、出门只肯搭公车的退休老中医，却是说捨就捨，毫无犹豫。黄东留先捐出十二万美金（逾新台币三百六十万）的积蓄，作为慈济医疗基金；又捐出二十七万美金（逾新台币八百五十万），作为台湾莫拉克风灾后的重建基金。
近日，黄东留又拿着十万美金支票，捐助海地赈灾。慈济志工担心她的生活，发现她的存摺只剩下一美金；志工劝她为自己多留一点，黄东留表示，还有社会福利，够用就好。
退休中医师 黄东留说：「我觉得捐钱是应该的，人就是要互相帮助，要不然就不像人。做人最重要是健康，钱没有用；所以自己有钱去帮人家，这是最好的。」
如此大笔金额捨得如此干脆，如此理所当然。而黄东留在哥哥黄丙元眼里，从小就是个慷慨助人的孩子。
黄东留的哥哥 黄丙元说：「她很聪明，很会照顾人家。她见到老人家，都扶人家过马路；见到隔壁老人家没饭吃，拿米去给他。」
捐出生平积蓄 过往同仁都感佩
从小就热心助人，长大后便成为守护生命、守护健康的医生。在2002年中风退休之前，黄东留也曾经在慈济义诊中心为病人看诊。
黄东留表示：「我很高兴去慈济义诊，因为能够帮人家，也看了很多病人。我做了不久，只做了一年；如果给我更多时间，我可以做更久。」
黄东留的热心和认真，在她离开义诊中心之后，让大家都相当怀念；她捐出积蓄的事蹟，更是感动了许多当年的老同事。
前慈济义诊中心中医主任 谢孟雪说：「我很震惊啊！她那么节俭的人，把她的老本都捐出来了。我觉得很了不起啊！特别是她想到水灾的人、这些受苦的人，所以她真的不但在医疗上有慈悲心，在灾难的时候，她还能有慈悲心来帮助，也是很了不起。」
十四年前加入慈济守护生命的行列，又捐出生平积蓄给慈济救病救灾，黄东留虽然受病痛所苦，无法再为人医，却以另一种方式，继续守护着众生。
